Fantastic food and good atmosphere. Didn't have to reserve but there were a few people in there (a Tuesday). Food felt freshly prepared. Bar tender was very polite. The pub is card payment only.

We came here for dinner, and received a warm greeting - order at the bar, so no table service. Not much of a selection of wines, but I was very happy with my Kiwi Sauvignon and husband very happy with a good beer selection. I did need a stiff drink, having seen the prices on the menu - £19 for a burger? We live within the M25 and this is more than we pay in London/Surrey! Having said that, it was an EXCELLENT burger and very good chips. Though really, would have been appropriately priced at £16. It seems you have to have deep pockets to visit Hay. Husband very happy with his halloumi and mushroom burger. I'd recommend this place as the food was good (what we saw of other diners also looked tasty) but you'll need to be prepared to for the sky high Hay prices.

Enjoyed a quiet pint at the blue boar. I sit outside in the lovely beer garden. I went on a Friday and it wasn’t too busy. Nice place I would go back.

We were a party of six...I believe 5/6 had the Fish (Hake) and Chips and was really good. Probably the best fish and chips we've had on the British Isles. Service was great and had 3 or 4 different servers come over and ensure we had everything we needed. Our BnB had recommended a different location but it was full (Sunday Lunch, no surprise) and glad it was as we might not have had such a great lunch.

Me and my wife went into the Blue Boar Inn for a drink on Sunday the 17th of September, it was about 4 pm, the two young gentlemen behind the bar were outstanding, polite, and excellent service. I hear a lot of criticism of the young people of today. They were a credit to the inn and their parents. Thank you to the both of you. Cheers Yorkshire Dan.

Such a lovely pub! Staff were so friendly, food was delicious and the atmosphere was really welcoming. Our first time in Hay-on-wye and was looking for a bite to eat. Glad we came here. Also their burger is quite possibly the most delicious burger I have had.

Breakfast at The Blue Boar is a very pleasant way to start the day. Cooked breakfast was excellent as were the pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. Very good service, recommended.

Called in 'on spec' with a party of 5 + dog for an evening meal. They were more than happy to accomodate us. Great food, great ambience, great service, and the staff were so helpful and pleasant. It was a pleasure to visit and somewhere I'll visit again if in the area.
